MEETING MINUTES REQUESTED (5/12)
Since I received this letter (also to the right) stating that the Council discussed my Feb. 19 proposal with staff and the attorney, evaluated the request, and officially made a decision that "the city council is not recommending revisions to the code or taking remedial action on the other points," I requested the minutes from the meeting where they made that decision as is required of them by Iowa Code Chapter 21.

WRONG MINUTES. SECOND REQUEST. (5/14)
At 10:30 a.m. on Monday, May 14, our City Clerk sent the minutes from the Feb.19 Council meeting. Which is the meeting where I made my proposal but not the meeting where they deliberated to reach the decision outlined in the letter. So at 10:57 a.m. I made a second request for the correct minutes.

THIRD E-MAIL TO CLERK (5/15)
Hearing nothing I sent this follow-up e-mail at 11:24 a.m. the next day, Tuesday --
"Pam, I’m just following up to check on the status of this request for meeting minutes. You are generally so responsive that I wanted to make sure the e-mail got through. Thanks."

REQUEST "UNDER REVIEW" (5/16)
Received at the end of the day after that, 4:28 p.m. Wednesday --

Dave –

I just want to confirm receipt of your email. Review is in the process and response should follow by end of the week.

Sincerely,

THE OFFICIAL ANSWER (Tuesday, 5/22)

Dave –

The Ankeny City Council took no formal action on your request to revise Section 8.08.190 of the Ankeny Municipal Code and is not required to do so unless a change in the Code is recommended.

If you wish to resubmit your request to the city council or I can be of any further assistance please contact me at 965-6400.
